Summary

Dietary pulses, including beans, chickpeas, and lentils, are high in soluble fiber with potential benefits to human health: Pulses are moderate energy density foods, low in fat and high in dietary protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Moderate pulse consumption is associated with improvements in glycemic control and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity and type 2 diabetes. Measuring pulse consumption in humans is difficult, due to limitations in current methods for dietary assessment which are largely based on dietary recalls that are subject to reporting bias. Robust tools for pulse intake assessment are needed, and biomarkers of dietary pulse intake are one approach to solve this problem. The goal of this human feeding study is evaluate the presence of biomarkers of dietary pulses in human subjects.

Interventions

OTHER

Control diet

The control Typical American Diet (TAD) diet pattern will mimic the level of intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, added sugars, saturated fats and sodium in the general U.S. population. This diet will feature no servings of pulses per day.

OTHER

Low Pulse diet

The Low Pulse diet will be designed based on the TAD with substitution of pulses for lean meat and grains. This diet will feature 0.2 cups of pulses per day at 2,000 kilocalories (kcals).

OTHER

High Pulse diet

The High Pulse diet will be designed based on the TAD with substitution of pulses for lean meat and grains. This diet will feature 1.5 cups of pulses per day at 2,000 kilocalories (kcals).
